As a small growing business, there are a few traits unique to our business that individuals should consider before applying.

• You must love the idea of giving back to the community and nonprofits. There are thousands of jobs. If being involved in the success of nonprofits is something you’re truly passionate about, this could be a great role.

• You must be extremely comfortable with change. As a small growing company, decisions can be made over a weekend and fully implemented by early the next week. Whether that’s new systems, new processes, or new approaches, we look for individuals who can adapt and thrive.

• You must believe that the best contributors should get better rewards. As a company, we believe in paying people based on the value they generate at the business.

• You must be willing to disagree and commit. As a growing business, there will be lots of decisions that get made and changes that occur during your time at the company. Some of which you’ll agree with and some you won’t, we strongly believe that the best team members have the ability to disagree and commit (i.e., going with a decision after it has been made regardless of whether or not you agree).

• You must believe the status quo is unacceptable. As a growing company and as individuals, we believe the status quo is unacceptable. Everyone should be relentless in striving to be the best version of themselves and figure out ways to create more value at the company, enhance our client's results, and grow professionally. The question should always be “How can I be better” rather than “How can expectations be adjusted”.

We also need you to:

• Be able to work independently and have a proven ability to work in a fast-paced environment

• Have excellent written & verbal communication skills

• Have a demonstrated ability to learn new things quickly and think on your feet

• Can work through obstacles and challenges

• Be highly organized with strong time management skills

• Be results driven and goal-oriented
